| Abstract | During the early stages of transcription, T7 RNA polymerase forms an unstable initiation complex that synthesizes and releases transcripts 2-8 nt in length before disengaging from the promoter and isomerizing to a stable elongation complex. In this study, we used RNA small middle dotprotein and RNA small middle dotDNA crosslinking methods to probe the location of newly synthesized RNA in halted elongation complexes. The results indicate that the RNA in an elongation complex remains in an RNA small middle dotDNA hybrid for about 8 nt from the site of nucleotide addition and emerges to the surface of the enzyme about 12 nt from the addition site. Strikingly, as the transcript leaves its hybrid with the template, the crosslinks it forms with the RNA polymerase involve a portion of a hairpin loop (the specificity loop) that makes specific contacts with the binding region of the promoter during initiation. This observation suggests that the specificity loop may have a dual role in transcription, binding first to the promoter and subsequently interacting with the RNA product. It seems likely that association of the nascent RNA with the specificity loop facilitates disengagement from the promoter and is an important part of the process that leads to a stable elongation complex. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
